🝯 Grandma’s dishes

#🝯 Grandma's dishes

Once, when I was a child, there was a large cabinet. Behind a pane of glass, sat grandma's dishes. We never ate off them. We never touched them. Those are grandma's dishes. They will be worth a lot of money someday, she said.

One day, grandma died. We took the dishes to the market, in hopes we could finally buy a home. But everywhere we went, the vendors would look at them and say, these look quite old, but I don't know anyone who would have any use for them, but they might be worth a lot of money someday.

We didn't have anywhere to keep them. We didn't find anyone to buy them. So we buried them carefully. They'll be worth a lot of money someday.

Then, after thousands of years, after every memory of who we ever were was gone, a very skilled archeologist found them, and carefully dug them up.

Then, they were sent to a museum, where again, they sat behind a pane of glass. Somewhere, a child walked by and thought, "I bet they're worth a lot of money".
